It's not a strike. FOREIGN company employers have locked AMERICAN WORKERS out because they would like to give their jobs away to minimum wagers. I'm for the American workers.

That's not quite the story. The companies locked out the greedy unions. The unions had been engaging in a work slow down for several weeks at least and had fought all attempts to modernize the ports. To the extent any modernization has happened the unions also are demanding collective bargaining rights over new computer operator employees who would be considered management by the companies and exempt from the CBA.

Until unions stop supporting Democrats, and the AFL-CIA blowhard John Sweeney, I say screw them.
